NASHVILLE, Tenn.-Vanderbilt's Brad Tinsley converted a game-winning three-point play with 17 seconds left, and John Jenkins hit a pair of free throws with 5.1 seconds remaining, as the Commodores came from one down in the final minute to beat Alabama 81-77 at Memorial Gymnasium on Wednesday evening.

With VU trailing by one after Trevor Releford hit a lay-up with 25.1 seconds left, Tinsley stepped just inside the 3-point circle on the right side, leaned in, buried a 17-footer, and drew a questionable fifth foul of the game on Releford.

After Tinsley hit the foul shot, the Commodores forced a turnover on UA's JaMychal Green as he dribbled out of bounds along the baseline, and Jenkins hit a pair of game-icing free throws.
